Mr. Bay, who was already on probation out of Deschutes County, Oregon on a second-degree burglary charge, committed multiple crimes during a two-month period.

He also crashed into two vehicles while driving in an impaired state and threatened to kill a random stranger while holding a cup of gasoline.
Beaverton police and the Washington County Sherriff’s Office investigated these crimes and arrested the defendant. Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt as a result of Mr. Bay’s actions.
The Washington County District Attorney’s Office wishes to acknowledge the work of the Beaverton Police Department and the Washington County Sherriff’s Office on these cases. We also commend the victims for aiding in the prosecution of the defendant.
In addition to his prison sentence, Judge Buchér also ordered the defendant to serve three years of post-prison supervision upon his release and to pay restitution to his victims.
